Thought a draw was a fair result. We played to our strengths where they let us, defending well, and we kept a very good Bournemouth side relatively quiet on the edge of our box.
Didn't do enough for a win, but Bournemouth will win plenty on their travels this year.
After being one down, it's a definite point gained.

Point gained,the way Bournemouth started the 2nd half I thought we would get a stuffing.

Point gained,definitely. It was a makeshift back four with a young full back doing very well. The new signings also need to bed in and Tomlin didn't play. Bournemouth were excellent and will be top six. I thought we were gutsy and deserved a point in the end.Good game and another tough one against Boro next.

Tomkins second and last game of ban?

Well, there is no longer a home advantage.
So it’s really about picking up as many points over 46 games
So a good point against a good team

Looking at the team selection before the game I would have definitely taken a point beforehand and at half time I'd have bitten your hand off for a point!
Bournemouth looked a class side to be fair and a cut above us. When you think that they had a few very talented players missing in Josh King and David Brooks I think they're going to be a real contender for automatic this season.
I appreciate we were also missing a few but I thought we were outclassed for most of the game.
What were weren't though was outfought and agree that a draw was a fair result.
Is Tomlin injured again?

Good Point

Definitely a point gained.

Definitely a point gained as Bournemouth have been in the Premier League for 5 years so have had the money to build a strong squad. We have signed a number of new players who need time to settle into our team set up!

Point Gained. We had a makeshift back 4. We played a recently relegated side with top players. They scored a well worked goal. Our home results have been poor. We can stop the rot and build on this. I’m encouraged with Wilson being able to grow in to the side as he gels with the other players around him. Plenty of positives.

Point gained they are a clever side took us until 2nd half to get hold in game! But we still lack that final ball lost count how close we were to getting through but final ball kept us down..... stats at end was faily even even if needed smithies wonder save near end to keep us level.

Corrected for you, two yellows = 1 game ban, still not quite ready fitness/injury wise

Great 2nd half performance and I thought we deserved the point. Bournemouth look a good bet to be top 2 but think we will improve....what a save from smithies too

Whose Tomlin's then fellow 62r! He had a slight groin strain by all accounts,let's hope he is back for the weekend? Bet he would love to put one over warnock

Point gained would not surprise me if Bournemouth were in the top two come the end of the season. They were without two of there best players King And Brooks against us when those two come back they will be even more formidable. Would not fancy playing them in the playoffs if we got there.
